Our first time searching on the rubble pile!  I've kept Juno off the rubble since she got spayed almost 2 weeks ago.  We did our usual 3 repeats.  Juno and I at the bottom of the pile; Pam at the top in a big plastic culvert we have buried in the concrete.  The front is big and easy for the dogs to see as soon as they crest the top of the pile.  Juno thought she'd rather go hunting for whatever good things she'd been smelling.  I had to gater her up, bring her back nd start her in the rubble instead of in the grass.  We did what we call a snap up, where the victim calls the dog and as she is coming in, the lid snaps up and the victim is concealed.  Since the first round didn't go really well, we repeated the same thing.  That went better, so we moved to a closed lid call-out.  Pam called, but the lid was almost completely closed.  Excellent round.  She decided she was ready to work.  It takes this girl a while to switch from playing her games to playing mine.

Juno is proving that she can LEARN this game.  We still have to see if she WANTS to participate.
